When everyone heard this, they all couldn't believe it.
Everyone thought they had heard it wrong.
"Master, did I hear you wrong? We really don't have to do anything, and you'll just give us food?"
"Yeah, Master, are you lying to us?"
“…”
The speed at which these people recognized their master was truly lightning fast. Feng Yun was very happy and said with a smile:
"Hahaha, my words are like an imperial decree. As long as you play games well, you will have food to eat. As long as you don't harbor any rebellious thoughts, I will treat you well."
"Thank you, Master. We promise we will never betray you."
"Yes, Master. We will never be so foolish as to betray you."
“…”
After these people received Fengyun's promise, they no longer had any intention of resisting.
In the next period of time, they will need to be brainwashed first and then trained slowly, just like the last batch of mercenaries, until they are fully qualified, and then they will gradually be freed from strict surveillance.
A few months passed, and Xiliang began to become turbulent again.
It is very likely that the kingdom will rise up in arms, and this time, just like in history, Ma Teng and Han Sui will follow him.
And the kingdom was also elected as the leader.
If Fengyun hadn't been in Xiliang, he really wouldn't have known the inside story.
During this period, Han Sui and Ma Teng took advantage of the fact that Xiliang was leaderless and developed rapidly.
Their actions naturally attracted Fengyun's attention.
According to Fengyun's inference, they are likely to launch an uprising in the next situation.
The storm is coming.
This matter can hardly be concealed in Xiliang.
Fengyun is still with Ma Chao, and his favorability with Ma Chao has reached 50.
If this continues, it will be natural for him to defeat Ma Chao.
But he didn't know how the game would develop after changing history.
But that was not what he considered.
After all, I have spent so much money on the system.
"Brother Yun, my father wants to discuss something with you. Do you want to come with me?"
"Go, of course. Go and see what your father has to say."
Seeing that his son and Fengyun had such a good relationship, Ma Teng never stopped them from interacting with each other.
Since he took the initiative to find Fengyun this time, it means that something really happened.
The two men walked briskly and went straight to the study in the Ma Mansion after dismounting.
Ma Teng was a rough man, but that did not prevent him from admiring scholars.
It's still very effective to install it occasionally.
Seeing the two of them coming, Ma Teng smiled and invited Fengyun in.
"Come, come, come, General, this way."
After the two of them sat down, Ma Chao stood behind his father.
Feng Yun didn't say anything polite and asked directly:
"I wonder what you want from me? Are you looking for me to mediate with the court?"
Fengyun knew what they had done in the past few months, and Ma Teng naturally understood it.
"No, no, the general must have seen it. Wang Guo is powerful, and he coerced Han Sui and me to help him rebel against the Han. We were forced to do so, but please do not report this to the court."
The claim that the kingdom was powerful and he was forced to rebel against the Han was just an excuse.
Fengyun didn't point it out either.
Since what the other party said is clear enough, it is time for him to make a choice.
If he chose to report to the court, his relationship with Ma Chao would be immediately wiped out.
Of course, this is impossible for him to do.
However, if he keeps it a secret, not only will he not benefit, but he will definitely be implicated if they rebel in the future.
Then he definitely wouldn't agree so easily.
"This is a difficult matter. As the imperial court's supervisor in Xiliang, if I don't disclose your every move, the imperial court will surely hold me accountable in the future."
Fengyun was also making an excuse. He had not reported it to the court for such a long time, which meant that he would not report it easily.
Ma Teng was also well aware of this.
That's why he looked for Fengyun.
It is probably difficult to hide it from the court now. If he wants to delay time any longer, he has to find Fengyun.
"Yes, I know it's difficult to be a general, but we have to launch the attack. Can we report it later?"
Since the matter has been made public, Ma Teng must of course give Fengyun face.
"This is a difficult matter. You know, I don't have many acquaintances in the court. Zhang Rang is the only one I recognize somewhat."
Fengyun looked embarrassed again. As an old hand, Ma Teng knew everything.
"General, just tell me what help you need from me, and I will do my best to help."
Fengyun was really unsure this time, but he had to help, and he also had to give benefits, so he said:
"You don't need my help. I heard that Dunhuang is vast and sparsely populated, so you don't have time to take care of it. Besides, the people here are tough and I really want to see them. We can't have a disobedient county in the Han Dynasty."
Ma Teng naturally understood this.
"Yes, General, you are right. Dunhuang has been ignoring the Han court's orders for a long time. We can't do anything about it for the time being, so we can only send you to personally suppress it."
"Okay then. I'll go see Zhang Rang now."
This matter could not be delayed, so Feng Yun immediately stood up and said goodbye, heading towards the teleportation array.
This matter is not easy to handle today.
Fengyun was thinking all the way about how to deal with it.
This is a serious crime of treason, and I definitely can't say this to Zhang Rang.
“It’s difficult!”
All the way, I arrived at Zhang Rang's mansion unknowingly.
Fengyun still hadn't figured out what to do, but now he had no choice but to go in.
The butler had a very good memory. When he saw that it was Fengyun, he took him directly to Zhang Rang's office without any extra words.
"Master Zhang, long time no see."
When Zhang Rang saw Feng Yun, the frost on his originally cold face melted away.
He stepped forward with a smile and said:
"So it's General Fengyun. What's the matter that requires the general to come in person?"
Feng Yun sighed at this time and said:
"Ah! I'm entrusted with this. Master Zhang is very busy with official duties, and I didn't want to trouble you, but this matter can only be handled by you."
Zhang Rang had heard too much of this kind of polite talk.
He simply waved his hand and said, "General Fengyun, we are family. Just tell me what you want. If I can help you, I will definitely do it."
"Hahaha, I knew Lord Zhang wouldn't be so reserved with me, so I'll be frank. It's like this, I have a friend who's the descendant of a loyal and righteous man, but now he's being held hostage."
Zhang Rang was completely bewildered and couldn't help asking:
"There's no point looking for me if someone's holding you hostage. General, why don't you just lead your troops and kill them?"
"Master Zhang, this isn't just a normal hostage situation. The other party might be planning a rebellion."
Zhang Rang was so shocked that he almost jumped up from his chair.
"Ah? Who? Who wants to rebel?"
The imperial court had long been on edge about this matter, and became extremely nervous whenever there was a rebellion.
"Yes, sir. I was just as nervous as you at first when I heard about the rebellion. But when I heard that the rebels were only a nobody, I felt relieved."
